  A comparison between Fast Faraday Cup and Feschenko longitudinal bunch shape detectors was recently performed at HELIAC Advanced Demonstrator beamline at GSI. Feschenko bunch shape monitor (BSM) uses the time to space conversion by means of secondary electrons emitted from a wire correlated to a rf deflector, while the fast Faraday cup (FFC) measures the deposited charge in a cup geometry matched to 50 Ohm. The FFC design aims to minimize the bunch shape dilution due to field polarization and secondary electrons produced on irradiation. An He1+ with 100 µA average current and 1.4 MeV/u kinetic energy is utilized for this comparison. A buncher upstream of the detectors was operated to focus the beam longitudinally. The results are discussed in this contribution.

  With the recent developments on improving spill quality at GSI/FAIR, appropriate measurement devices have come into focus again. In contrast to commonly used scaler-based approaches where events at a certain sample frequency are counted, we present a measurement concept resolving single event detector timestamps in the sub-ns regime leveraging a well established off-the-shelf TDC VMEbus module. This allows for high resolution time structure information with respect to the ring RF as well as valuation of inter-particle separation distributions. This yields insightful information for specific experiments at GSI whose efficiencies are heavily limited by pile-ups and detector dead times. We will present the concept of the measurement setup and exemplary data taken in recent campaigns in context of spill microstructure improvements for slow extraction.
